As broadband sailed past the majority mark in 2007, telcos pushed ahead of their cable competition on the strength of competitive pricing for DSL and new fiber deployments. More specifically, the low cost of AT&T's DSL service has helped the telco win the top market share spot, as even price-sensitive dial-up customers switched to high-speed. The growth in adoption of broadband at home may have led consumers — especially the youngest generation, Gen Y — to seek a connection to the Web outside of the home, as more consumers got "hooked" on the always-on, high-speed availability of content and communications.
